The Goopster's War Comments

I keep waiting for Gwyneth Paltrow to apologize or say that her quotes were taken out of context, but so far nothing

. What I am talking about is a conference the Goopster spoke at this week where she said that internet attacks on her were the equivalent of going to war and they are both a bloody dehumanizing thing. Huh? I think from this point forward Gwyneth should not speak in public unless it is to talk about a movie or something that doesn't show how callous she is about human life. I'm not sure how internet comments are the same as being shot at in war. This is just another example of how Gwyneth is so out of touch with everything she does. I really hope her kids don't turn out the same way because that would be a shame if they believe the stuff their mother is spewing. You get the feeling that Chris Martin doesn't believe this stuff, but I guess he can't be her filter. She needs a filter. She needs to do something before every segment of the population hates her. Right now she is probably at 85%. The other 15% are so wrapped up in loving on Kimye or watching porn they haven't got around to noticing what she says.

I just read that Charlize Theron compares her experience with tabloids and their ilk to rape. Rape and war, ladies. I'm honestly glad neither has been through either, because I wouldn't wish it on anyone, but maybe they should just shut up.

I don't know how to make this clicky, but I think this veteran pretty much sums it up, nothing else needs to be said: http://www.ijreview.com/2014/05/142632-green-beret-choice-words-gwyneth-paltrows-comparison-tweets-war/

But she actually *believes* her life is hard and she's just terribly, terribly brave in the face of limitless cash and several layers of domestic staff. I'm not sure she is capable of filtering her own personal truth. She lives on her own little Platinum Paltrow Planet. She's easier to take if you pretend she's in a terrarium on the coffee table.

Cindy McCain publicly called Gywneth an idiot and I retweeted that shit twice! That's some fucked up shit spewing out of Gwyneth's mouth….does she not realize what John McCain (and other soldiers), a former PoW, went through just to stay alive?! I can't…I have no words for how angry I am that she is so fucking stupid and thatthere people who listen to her.

As I said yesterday, she's a self righteous cunt. I have 3 boys in the Air Force, one of whom did a tour in Qatar. I was petrified every day he was gone and if I ever see her at the airport or anywhere in public, all yall will see the video of me Throwing Down and Losing My Damn Mind! Fucking hate her!

Kno is completely right. She lives in her own head and believes the stuff she spews. As I told my 11 yr old grandaughter about the man next door, who gets drunk and carries on loud, contentious conversations in his back yard with no one, there is no law against sitting around talking crazy. Just let her rave.

I'm w/ you @GatorGirl. I don't condone violence, but I would like to put her out in the middle of a war zone w/o mommy's help or any money or celebrity connections and see how well she fares. She needs to be punished in a way where she truly suffers. Beating her to a pulp only makes her more the victim. I say we drop her off in the middle east war zone.

I think you'll be waiting for a bacon-curing time if you're waiting for a Goop apology that sounds real.

@GatorGirl, hugs to you and the best wishes for your boys. My SO served and it boggles my mind when celebs equate their horrific days in makeup and line reading with people who have lost limbs or still suffer from PTSD and are thrown away like flypaper. I need some Ray Nicolet poundage.

Nora and Gator: I think this is a good idea. Deeply embed her and let her see what war is really like. She'll be begging for an internet beat down then. Here's the thing ALL actors (at least stage) learn. If you believe the good reviews you have to believe the bad. Stop reading that shit and maybe it won't bother you so much. Not like you must.

Oh that's really, really bad, I am sure seeing bad comments about yourself is very disturbing and unpleasant, but she does not need to read them, but even if she does need to, you can't compare it to the atrocity that is war. The death, the terrible injuries, the brutality, the torture, the conditions, the loneliness, the fear, the sheer horror of the indiscriminate bloodshed.

She maybe needs to take a step back and try to understand why people are making the comments they are. And she really needs to stop saying stuff like this. She is doing herself so much damage now.

She just desperately wants to identify with everyone and for everyone to like her – reeks of insecurity. She will forever be saying dumb stuff that she's thinks is brilliant in order to get external validation. And then when it doesn't work? Oh woe is me! I'll go cry in my castle. Such a fairy tale. I don't hate her but boy is she obtuse.

I think that she and Tom Cruise should get together they both seem to think that doing the most mundane, lightweight things is the equivalent of soldiering. Has anyone ever used the expression 'fuckwit' on this site? She is one.

Just ignore her. That is the greatest punishment for a narcissist like her – being ignored, and considered irrelevant. Because, let's face it, her many boneheaded comments have made it pretty clear that she is irrelevant.

Why does she not have a really good publicist? Someone who is with her and can stop these sort of damaging comments going out, where she has final edit approval on everything? I don't understand, she must be able to afford a good one, where she can make all the really damaging comments she wants but only the comments that will show her in a positive light will ever reach the media.? She should also be advised to either decline any live public speaking opportunities like this one, or read only from a pre approved, pre written speech. A good publicist would be able to stop this sort of thing happening.

I just wait for this woman to shut the f*** up. Being a spoilt rich woman living in the showbiz bubble doesn't give her any rights to think she knows better. I'm fed up of her opening her mouth to say all those offensive bulls*** . And xhy anyone gives her any credit. God how I hate her.

I agree with the KermitGosnell commenter above….I simply read it as she was using war as an analogy to make her point. But I see the overwhelming majority took her comments as literal, so I guess I need to do some rethinking or something.

I wish that Martin guy had some balls and would write a tell all on this dunce, cause I probable won't be around for when the kids are old and broken enough to do it. In another 20-30 years yer gonna see a book for sale titled "She Fucking Named Me Apple" and its gonna be a complete tear down.

Just because something is a metaphor or an analogy doesn't mean it can't be incredibly offensive. When a politician does something the other side doesn't like and they say he's behaving like "Hitler," we all know they don't mean it literally, but it diminishes and trivializes how horrific Hitler really was. By using this comparison, she is trivializing the suffering of war. And it might not even be so bad if our military weren't in the middle of so many conflicts right now, which means a good portion of her audience currently has a loved one in a combat zone.

Can we all, as a society, please just evolve beyond the point of giving a flying fuck what Gwyneth Paltrow says? She's an idiot, but I find it very difficult to be offended by her. She's just so…incredibly vapid.

My dad was in the army, served in the Vietnam War. I know what she was trying to say, that the camaraderie felt by troops due to going through experiences most don't have, is similar to the bond that famous/infamous people have due to the intense trolling/commenting they deal with that most people don't experience. However, it still isn't war. She could have commented on the bond without the analogy.

Why does anyone care what she says? Did she go to college? Has she written a published paper on this subject? Why are her uneducated statements discussed more than an official Dr of smartness? Why are any of you offended? All you're supposed to do is enjoy her movies and maybe discuss her dress on the red carpet. She's famous for repeating other peoples words, not her own original thoughts.

First of all, a BIG Thank you to all of you that have relatives serving or that did serve so obnoxious out of touch morons like Goopy can run her mouth. Second, I agree with the above that the best way to deal with her is to pretend she doesn't exist.

Charlize may have spoken out of turn, but her upbringing was far from Gwynnie's. Charlize's father was alcoholic and abusive, and during one of his attacks, her mother shot and killed him. Charlize came to LA to act and was so hungry, she stole food, posed for Playboy and who knows what else. When she became famous she spoke out against rape and domestic violence in South Africa.

She named her kid apple for god sake. I agree…just ignore her…I do think its funny that she doesn't comment on what actually must be hard….going through life that flat chested. Although with that dress she is wearing I don't think she actually realises Lol.
